[oe] Help?

[David Thomas]

I used Fedora 13 after trying to use 15. I ran into all sorts of issues with 15 and the last issue I encountered was gmake 3.82 and patch versions. 

After working that angle for a while I downgraded to 13 as it had all the correct versions of gmake, etc. I did not install as root any package unless it was the only way to get it to install using sudo.

I ran it as root as a experiment after messing with trying to resolve this permissions issue for several days. 
It is not a permissions issue in my OE directory, there is access taking place somewhere else in the file system it does not like but I cannot seem to resolve where this access attempt is taking place.

I went back in and reinstalled everything related to OE, same result. Time to toss in the towel and rebuild linux again?
